I just picked up some Mastery Textured line and the guy at my local fly shop said the stuff does great and said he didnt see much difference in it compared to the sharkskin other than the noise and of course it is a little cheaper. I will hopefully be going back down south again this coming weekend and will give it a try. I just wish it came in a different color like a light blue or something other than the willow color the trout comes in.
